* KnifeNut: Sheath, the Inhuman girl Gwen fights, battles using energy daggers that seem to drain the life energy from whoever they touch, with one graze nearly incapacitating her. The fact that they don't leave any marks is what led the police to believe Ghost Spider was responsible for Kevin's death, since Sheath left no evidence.

* FoeRomanceSubtext: Ghost Spider and Patriot's banter.

After [[ComicBook/SpiderGwen Ghost-Spider]] once again evades capture from the NYPD, Captain George Stacy enlists the help of ComicBook/{{SHIELD}} to apprehend her. The reason? Months earlier, an young Inhuman named Kevin was found murdered in an abandoned warehouse, with the only other person present being the aforementioned web-slinger. However, Ghost-Spider isn't the culprit, with the real assailant being an unknown woman who left the scene shortly before the police arrived. The shorts follow the beginnings of her efforts to [[ClearMyName clear her name]] and avenge her friend's death, while [[ComicBook/SecretEmpire Patriot]] and ComicBook/DaisyJohnson attempt to bring her into custody. Meanwhile, ComicBook/SquirrelGirl and [[ComicBook/MsMarvel2014 Ms. Marvel]] are in the city for their superhero first team-up.

* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In the comics, Gwen Stacy initially used her powers for fun and profit before hearing her father criticize her persona for wasting her talents. Afterwards, she begins crime-fighting, but her commitment to do so is only cemented after she fights the Lizard, who turns out to be her best friend Peter Parker. [[ILetGwenStacyDie Peter dies from his injuries]] after reverting back to normal, and Gwen spends over thirty issues as a fugitive, with the goal of becoming a better hero so her best friend wouldn't have died in vain. In the cartoon, it's implied that this Gwen was a hero from day one. Instead of Peter Parker, her best friend was an Inhuman named Kevin, who she was helping train to become a superhero as well. Rather than him accidentally dying by Gwen's hands, Kevin's murdered by a Kree villain during his first patrol, with Gwen [[ClearMyName being framed for the crime]].

* AdaptationNameChange: Spider-Gwen calls herself Ghost-Spider instead of Spider-Woman here. However, in a piece of RetCanon, the Gwen of the comic would start using the Ghost-Spider codename beginning in ''ComicBook/GhostSpider2019'', once she began regularly operating in both her native dimension and the main Marvel universe.

* YouJustToldMe: When Daisy indicates to Ghost Spider that she knows she's Captain Stacy's daughter Gwen, Ghost Spider takes off her mask and questions how Daisy knew that. She admits she didn't; it was just a hunch based on how [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness she behaved when in his presence]].
